Pump sits in a basket that click-locks into a housing. Some folks have been able to rotate/remove (counterclockwise) the inner by using gloved hands. Some have crossed wood or metal pieces that fit the notches to do the rotating without the 3214.

Feeling inside the old tank to twist out the fuel pump, I can't quite figure it out.  Bentley is not of much help, suggesting Special Tool 3214.  I can feel two sort-of tabs that I try to press towards the inside with one hand and then twist counterclockwise, but something is still keeping the pump from twisting.  I can't fit both hands into the opening.  What am I missing?
